Going - Good to Soft (Good in places).

Formscan  - Jango Baie flew home from what looked an impossible position to win the Arkle and this extra half-mile should certainly suit, while Gidleigh Park's Windsor triumph took a huge boost when the runner-up Caldwell Potter came out and slammed his rivals in the novices' handicap at the Festival. However, Irish raiders CROKE PARK and Impaire Et Passe make most appeal. The latter won a thrilling renewal of the Aintree Hurdle 12 months ago and warrants plenty of respect in first-time cheekpieces, but Gordon Elliott's charge had his measure at the Dublin Racing Festival and could confirm that superiority. The strapping seven-year-old has improved throughout this season and another step forward would make him difficult to beat.
